Thirsty for revenge

"By himself your father will not change his mind about you. His mind was violated in such a way that your name is a painful memory; he was subjected to a military type of torture, if for a human it is difficult to overcome that state imagine what it is for a neophyte."

Klaus said in a professional tone, as he turned to return to his office.

"You are a professional in the neophyte area there must be something that can be done, I can't leave him like this " I was beginning to despair about my father's situation and wanted a prompt solution , I grabbed Klaus by the shoulders tightly and wrinkled the collar of his shirt .

"With violence you won't get anything from me , I don't think you have understood that yet "

Klaus words had a threatening tone , I did not want to fight but I wanted a solution for my father . I took a deep breath and let go of Klaus's shirt collar slowly .

"The best thing will be for you to calm down, as I said your father was subjected to a very strong mental torture . Only the strongest memories that remained ingrained in his parental system are still intact, digging deep into a half human half vampire mind is not easy."

Klaus arched an eyebrow as if washing his hands of the matter, his words one after another kept denying the 'possibility that my father could be the same as before .

"You mean to say that in the back of his mind there is still something of the old George to serve as a reminder of who I am."

"That's a relief "I replied gray wolf with great anticipation .

"It only remains for you to wait for him to adapt make a tame neophyte and then his brain will try to reveal the truth to him , but I warn you it will take a long time for that to happen . Minds that have been manipulated at the mercy of their tormentor very seldom come to understand the difference between the false and the true".

Agony pierced my chest and anger gripped my soul more and more with every reasoning Klaus made .

"The most serious thing about the state of his mind apart from the torture is the fact that the figure of the person he loved has become his permanent tormentor "

"That what do you mean "Frowning confusion came over me, more and more I felt that I was in a dead-end maze that was suffocating me .

"The executioner of your father's mind is you , Araticus tortured him and made him believe through repeated commands that it was you who somehow caused him that pain "

"That damned , I'll finish him off once and for all " I spit with uncontrollable fury , giving a hard fist on one of the trees .

"I've come from the time to keep your promises grandfather."

I said in a loud voice entering the mansion abruptly.

"What's wrong with you now, I thought you wouldn't come back to the mansion."

The look of surprise on grandfather's face was puzzling , but I needed his help to fight Araticus was now not never .

"What is it that you want to do ? , because my father should prove his fidelity to you . I thought you had already chosen your path ."

Commented the coyote with disdain .

"I wanted to run away from here and never come back . But looking at my father in that cursed state made me come back ; I desire revenge and I need your help to achieve it "

Grandfather and the coyote stared at me in silence .

"Revenge the most insatiable desire after beautiful obsession and precious infatuation ."

Said Carmina coming down the stairs of the mansion with an elegant transparent dress that accentuated her feminine attributes very well .

"Wow , I see some things have changed since I left , I guess Sasha is no longer at home" .

Carmina sketched a mischievous smile and imagine what everyone already knew .

"Sasha was a spy for Araticus after all , you remember Stefano's vision was very clear . We found out that she was the one who informed Araticus the address of your parents ; the fire was her fault not yours ."

I was totally shocked to hear the words of the coyote , do not hate to believe that Sasha was done this to us .

"Never trust your friends and keep your enemies close " Replied Carmina .

"Besides you know what old Hall is like , he's nothing without a female figure by his side . I just hope that this time the little pigeon does not turn into another poisonous snake ."

"Watch your words , because you don't know how fast the venom of an angry snake kills ."

Carmina glared at the coyote and sat cross-legged on the living room couch .

"I could hear that you want revenge and that you need us by your side , I guess you are already little man to know that Araticus may be waiting for your attack "

Carmina's ironies began to spread throughout the mansion , now that she was the lady of the house she was the one in charge of all decisions .

"I will do anything to avenge my parents , I will dismember the body of that wretch once and for all " The fire of anger was coming out of my mouth , I was ready and prepared to put an end to this story and I knew what that represented ; the death of Araticús and the end of his tyranny .

"I like , the tenacity of your character . Let's say we support you , how much would you be willing to lose in battle ."

Carmina looked at me intensely hoping to close a fair deal , negotiating as many allies grandfather had to fight on my side .

"I think you have forgotten one small detail in this negotiation . I have my own decision , I decide whether to support Christian or not . Just because you manipulate my father doesn't mean that I should give in; besides, if we are talking about allies, I have my own allies".

Commented the coyote somewhat uncomfortable with his new stepmother .

"The number of your backstabbers is laughable compared to the allies that my Raymond and I have."

Carmina got up from the couch and tried to intimidate the coyote by approaching him sharply .

"Stop it , you look like a couple of kids fighting over candy . I'll support my grandson with everything he needs ; it's time to win this battle and regain our position in the immortal world ."

Commented the grandfather with authority .

"I think I finally hear sensible words in this mansion . Grandfather I would like to apologize for my behavior lately ; my father's situation made me reflect and understand that I need the family more than ever ."

Grandfather approached me and opened his arms to squeeze me with them .

"We will fight this battle and we will win" I murmured.

"I am also willing to support in everything . The pack will follow my orders to the end ."

Said Gray Wolf approaching the center of the room .

"More werewolves , this will be a battle to the death . I hope I don't pick up furry ears in the process ."

Commented the coyote sarcastically as he listened to gray wolf's words .

"You'd be surprised at the prowess we have in battle , that's without presuming that we wolves are faster than vampires ."

Coyote glared at him , and turned to leave the mansion .

"Wait don't go yet , I think we should make a family pact at this time ."

Grandfather commented , placing his hand in the air in a sign of approval .

"You think we could betray you , you make me feel humiliated . We are not all like Sasha ."

Frowning the coyote returned to the living room .

"I didn't mean to make you uncomfortable son , but you must understand that we are about to start a great battle and loyalty is the basis of victory ."

"Loyalty you say? "Replied Carmina

"That's right loyalty , whoever betrays this pact will be killed by my own hands ; I will not tolerate another betrayal in this family".

We all looked at each other and the tension suddenly increased .

"I just hope this stupid deal keeps us more together than divided ; because the house that divides against itself will be destroyed " Said the coyote with a look of intrigue towards Carmina .

"You speak for yourself don't you ?" Carmina asked pinking with one of her claws on the coyote's chest .

"Stay away from my side because I don't answer " Said the coyote snorting .

"You won't respect me , not even because I'm your new stepmother " Carmina took a step back making a small pout with her lips .

"Enough both of you , raise your hands and let's get this over with . I will summon all our allies tonight to leave before dawn to the Pocaterra mansion and finally end this infernal legacy" Grandfather's authority made us all obey and raise our hands in the air in loyalty until we joined them in a circle .

I'm not sure that these symbolisms and protocols served any purpose, but I respected my grandfather, I had regained my trust in him and he trusted me. I am sure that with the army of allies that we have we will finally be able to finish with the demon of the prince of vampires and I will finally have my revenge.
